I love this Pepe Gardiola man. He knows what makes a good football team and Chelsea are a good team – come on “they run more-they jump more”.
It’s a shame they weren’t entered for the Grand National though the Weston Super Mare Donkey Derby might have suited Drogba and his antics better.
Pepe Gardiola has a wicked sense of humour and it does him great credit that he was still able to take the Michael after the great Spain robbery last night.
